नमो विश्वविधानज्ञे विधे विविधकारिणि । सुतं वंशकरं देहि तुष्टामुष्माद्व्रताच्छुभात्
namo viśvavidhānajñe vidhe vividhakāriṇi | sutaṃ vaṃśakaraṃ dehi tuṣṭāmuṣmādvratācchubhāt
Sembah sujud kepada-Mu, Yang mengetahui aturan alam semesta; wahai Vidhātā, pelaksana pelbagai karya. Dengan berkenan atas vrata kami yang suci ini, kurniakanlah kepada kami seorang putera yang meneruskan keturunan.
